meh, I drive a big pickup, people in pussy little subys always stop at that sign when I'm around :)
regardless: it is a discussion of angels and pinheads to quibble about drive times to the bird between Sandy and Sugarhouse. Adding both together is the amount of time it takes MyBad just to get to I-70, not even to mention the min 40 more mins he'd have to spend to ski.
I live 3 minutes from the park and ride at LCC. For dawn patrols, I wake up 20 minutes later than all the suckas coming from Sugarhouse. When you're alarm is going off at 3:30am to meet my at 4am, I'm still sleeping.;) Worse yet, if you're coming from Sugarhouse on a bluebird, weekend pow day, have fun in the traffic on Wasatch Blvd. Cause I'll already be that much further ahead of you, while you twitch out as I get your first tracks.
Sorry Lemonboy, it's more than 5 minutes from the esteemed Sugarhouse. And the stop sign is a non-issue.
Sugarhouse=over priced, too far from the goods.
Definition of goods for me=skiing, climbing, trails, creeks, mountains, views of mountains.
I am iceman?
wild.

Dude, that place is making you dumber by the minute and you weren't starting out too high. I suggest you move. :) :rolleyes2: ;)
MyBad- don't listen to all these oldsters, especially those dangerous individuals who think they're ABOVE THE LAW and won't ovserve traffic signs, sheesh. Dangerous A-holes who jeapardize the rest of us with their selfish and idiotic behavior. It only takes a second to stop for a sign people.

:redface: Sandy is largely LDS and much more conservative than sugar house, I can walk to great places to eat, the post office, movies and only have two kids on the whole block , Sugar house is a great place to lve in SLC, Hell even my state rep. is gay.....for Utah thats pretty damn unUtah. Sandy is like the home of HBO's Big Love family(s)
[threaddrift]
yep that's the one
anyone ski it recently?
[/threaddrift]
Wow, I'm sold now.:rolleyes:Quote:

Kamas. All the cool kids are moving there.
Why don't you use the search function YOU FUGGIN' JONG. Geeze, two threads about Utah this week from you and both are topics that have been gone over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over but your too friggin' lazy to search bitch. It's that little button up there to the right that says Search with the little down arrow next to it. Find it, use it and move to Utah already. Joy will follow. (and a bitch slap if you keep this up)
hahahahahahah. Someone needs a dawn patrol.;)Quote:

We're taking this town over, dammit!!!
the "big love" comparision is also really unfair. 2 of our 3 closest neighbors are not LDS at all, much less the FLDS type grossly exaggerated/distorted in big love. its media dammit, not reality.
I can also walk to the PO, 2 grocery stores, Smoky mtn pizza, blockbuster, starbucks, quiznos and another restaurant -not sure what yet-going in, and soon, Home Depot!!! (ok, that last one's not so good - but think of the easy access - we can just take a cart and roll our lumber across 9400! :D )
Don't get me wrong, I like sugarhouse, it is definitely liberal SLC, and yea, there's better restaurants than those I just mentioned. But there's also crazy theft in sugarhouse - how many maggot cars have been broken into or stolen there lately? (it happens in sandy too, -but not nearly as often)
Also, we made the choice to get 4x the house and yard than we could have touched in Sugarhouse, for only a fraction more. plenty of our friends have or have had really cute SH bungalows - but everybody's got their own requirements, that's all.
nice pic, Trackhead, i can see the crowsfoot too, and the top of the tram when it's clear:)
Going to the UofU and living in Sandy is like going to CU and living in Longmont.
Look in Sugarhouse if you:
- Are gay or want to be gay
- Like really bad coffee houses with some wannabe hippie dripping his / her sanctimony into your brew.
- Dress in only black and rock out to the Smith's on your Walkman.
- Carry a skateboard but don't really know how to ride it.
- Like being stuck behind 74 Suburban’s and H2's at every traffic light on the weekends (cause all the soccer mom's think it's cool to shop at the Bed Bath and
Beyond in Sugarhouse as compared to any of the other 16 BBB's in town).
- Eat at Red Lobster for the Great fresh fish.
- Think painting your front door a different color other than brown makes you hip and groovy.
(Just kidding Jay, don’t get too wadded up; it's a nice place other than those traits I have noticed over the years).
Honestly, all of SLC is close to good skiing. If you are going to the U, look in the Avenues if you can afford it. Sandy can be very convenient to everything this area has to offer, just don't look at places near State Street. Religion is EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD; don't worry about it unless you require some form of exorcism. I really get a kick out of how everyone thinks any place in the US is so different from any other place in the country. Minor differences but the entire country is becoming one big freaking mini-mall anyway.

for those wondering, powstash's first post was the correct answer.
The point is that no one is sitting there waiting for the road to be clear to go. You pause briefly and turn into the merge lane and go. It's not like you're going to sit there for 20 minutes waiting for there to be no traffic on Wasatch.Quote:

I will stay in Sandy, thank you. Because my priorities are not sitting in coffee houses sipping frothed milk and wasting my money on 'fine dining'. Lonestar works fine for me.;)Quote:

For someone who claims to be so damn liberal and tolerant, you sure are uptight about mormons. Such a free thinker.
Just for you, I recommend either West Valley City, Kearns, or even better...Magna.Quote:

PEACE yabyum:rolleyes2
Personally, I would agree with Stump in the 10 threads he has contributed on this subject and not look west of I15:rolleyes: . Please keep this kind of whining and snobbery on the East side;). We don't got time for it over here!
I would recommend Cottonwood Heights for it's location in relation to the canyons but since you will be going to the U I would go with Sugarhouse. Sugarhouse is a nice area and more importantly has a good vibe. Sandy is fine to but it's further away from the U and traffic can get bad.
